A teenage boy rebels against parental authority and must face a harsh reality when he tries to live on his own.

The lives of a businessman and his family begin to spiral downward after he has an affair at an insurance convention.

　　马修（理查德·法恩斯沃斯Richard Farnsworth饰）和玛利亚（科琳·杜赫斯特Colleen Dewhurst饰）自觉年事已高，决定收养一个男孩来帮助他们料理农场里大大小小的事务。然而，孤儿院却闹出了马大哈，将一个名叫安妮（梅根·佛洛斯Megan Follows饰）的红发女孩送到了爱德华王子岛上。
　　安妮非常的活泼可爱，整天都有着说不完的话，问不完的问题，这让向来严肃缺乏幽默感的玛利亚感到招架不来。然而，随着时间的推移，老少之间渐渐产生了真挚的情谊。安妮梦想能够成为一名小说家，并且为了实现梦想而拒绝了一直爱慕她的少年吉尔伯特（强纳森·哥伦比Jonathan Crombie饰）的求婚。

When Anne Shirley arrives at the Cuthbert’s Farm on Prince Edward Island, she is a precocious, romantic child, desperate to be loved, and highly sensitive about her red hair and homely looks. Anne moves from one mishap to another as her wild imagination and far-fetched antics combine to constantly bring trouble upon her shoulders.
